Suggestion for a servIceable SILK.

LrIOIII q tI9IIIOH M gdAIHe.I
For those who can only afford one silk
dress for the summer the best and most eco
nomica1 purchase is a white China silk of
good quality and heavy texture. Such a
dress is suitable for all occasions, and if ar
ranged SO as to be easily worn open at the
throat is sufficiently dressy for dinner par
ties and seaside dances. They are SO soft
that they fit and drape well and can be taken
apart and washed half dozen times with
out damage, though they shed dust, resist
sea damp and dew and do not soil easily.
White silk gloves and Leghorn hat trimmed
with white point d'esprit and daisies, white
chrysanthemums or edelweiss, make the
whole a suitable and pretty costume for
church and calling.

The secretary of the California State VIII
cultural commissioners sent some time ago
| large number of circulars to all parts of the
State asking for information about the pros
poets for this seasons wine crops. From
them, as well as from other sources of infor-
nation, he is reported as saying that this
years wine crop will amount to 10000, 900
gallons. Last year 1t was between II, ,000, GOO
and IS, ,O00,0 600 gallons. Had the vineyards
not been damaged by frost the product
would have aggregated fully 30,O0O,0oo gall
Ions. Some 100000 gallons this season
will be made into brandy 1t is expected
that the must-condensing machines will re-
duce the wine product about 2,O0O, 900 gall
Ions.

big railroad fight is in progress in New
Hampshire. Two bills were introduced in
| the legislature and referred to the railroad
| committee. The Hazen bill authorizes the
| consolidation of the Boston and Maine with
the other New Hampshire roads, and permits
| it to obtain the control of the Concord road.
The Atherton bill provides for the control of
| the Boston, Concord and Montreal and other
roads in the northern part of the State by
the Concord road. The time of the commit
tee thus far has been occupied with the evi-
dence and arguments in behalf of these two
rival projects. The arguments are now
closed and the committee will consider the
two bills and prepare to report. Two reports
will probably be presented and then the
strife in the legislature will begin.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Editor Grady says that Georgia will give
Cleveland 100: 900 majority in 1888, and the
New York Tribune observes that this is the
State which proposes to make it penal Of
fence to teach white and colored pupils in the
same school.
The prize offered by the French govern
ment of SIC, 900 for the most valuable dis
covery relating to the utilization of elec-
tricity is to be awarded next December II
is for any use or application of electricity,
namely, as a source of heat, or light, or of
chemical action, as a means of transmission
of mechanical power, or of verbal communi-
cation in any form, or, finally, as curative
agent.
Some people say they don't know what is
the matter with them when they are drunk
ards. DIR. Norman Kerr, of London, has fur
nished all such with an explanation: There
is an abnormal cerebral condition, dynami-
cal and psychical disturbance of the brain
and nerve function, real departure from
sound health, which is itself pathological
state with, in all probability, its post-mor-
tenn equivalent in hyperplasma of the neuro-
glia.

would take the nomination if Sparks
would let him. Capt. Nave OF Woen-
socket has q host of frieuds, and. though
an ex.confederste officer, he is nearer
q white man than some of the political
straddlers in the territory. But of all
the democrats one yet held in reserve
is to be considered. There is probably
not one in the party with more
money than Col. Gale OF Canton, and he
is a rising genius among the "demo
GRATIS" LII it is a foriorn hope Gale may
have to be trotted ont, as he can foot
the bills, and besides it would be real
nice so have Canton advertised as the

not be music in the ARP The haif has
not been told. Many of those nened
are "old stagers." aud they must first
be gotten out of the way to appease
them. The next los OF candidates (now

many of them are new men, and stroos

Result of STAGE Knee1inc.

''Housemaids knee has long held a
recognized and honorable place among the
ills which flesh is heir to-honOrable be-
cause, as we know, ''Who sweeps a floor
as for Gods law makes that and the ac-
ton fine.'' The prevailing taste for
emotional drama has developed varia-
ton of this complaint which may be called
leading lady's knee" Mrs. Kendall is
the first victim, or at any rate the first
whose case has been recorded. Lady
Clancarty has to importune, first her
flinty hearted brother, and then the more
complaisant king, for mercy toward her
husband. This involves such continual
kneeling that Mrs. Kendall has been for
some time suffering the pains hitherto
held peculiar to housemaids and nuns.
She now kneels upon a cushion.-Pall

The First Train from Paris.

Paris is making preparations for spe-
cial jubilee of her own. y few weeks
hence il Will he fifty years since the first
train steamed out of Paris and reached
the suburb of St. German. The guard
of that train is still alive and has strange
accounts to give of the journey and OF the
preparations for it. 1t seems to nave
been scarcely such q triumph for France,
after all The engine. of course, was
English and the driver and Stoker were
English too The engine ran on four
wheels. and was Il singular contrast to
present locomotives, but the first class
carriages were almost of the same pattern
as that still in use on the line. The sec
ond class were open, furnished with cur
tains to keep off the sun, and beyond the
curtains nets were stretched to prevent
too curious travellers from losing their
balance and their lives.
French taste asserted itself in the de-
partments of costume and music. The
guards had Il uniform Of blue, and gold
buttons, and We're supplied with hunting
horns. Great Importance was attached to
the horns, which We're to represent the
comets used by the positions of the mail
coaches For Il week before the first
journey the guards carefully rehearsed a
fanfare, which was TO be played with
great spirit on the departure and just be-
fore the arrival of the train. They have
changed many things on French lines in
fifty years. and among others have sub
stituJed railway whistles for hunting
horns-Boston Transcript

Cotton Seed Products

Two-thirds of the cotton seed oil sold i'll
the United States goes to the makers of
lard and butterinc, and its use to the eX-
tent of about 20 per cent. has been one of
the most powerful influences in reducing
the price of lard. 1t IS also being used
for cooking and a large proportion OF the
oil taken with salads and sardines is the
product of the cotton fields. Happily sci
entitic men declare that it is perfectly
wholesome, and some say that it is better
than animal fats, at which vegetarians
will rejoice. II is estimated that not far
from 100000 tons Of cotton seed are used
in this industry every year, and that from
400. 900 to 800 600 barrels of crude oil are
produced, half of which is exported from
the states The oil is not the only prod
uct of the seed. The meal, after the oil
has been expressed, is sold, either loose or
compressed into cake, for animal food,
cattle taking to it kindly, and for fertillz-
ing purposes. When refined it is difficult
to distinguish between the cotton and
olive oils-Chicago Times.

Defvinr Spanish Court Etiquette.

The queen regent of Spain is knocking
the blue laws of Spanish etiquette to
pieces at a jolly rate. The other day she
called a meeting of the ministry at the
Castle of Araniuez. When the statesmen
reached the gate of the park they found
the qneen and the Princess Isabel waiting
for them. The queen was in a victoria
and the Princess Isabel was in drag and
four. The queen was driving. She in
yited Senior Sagasta to take a seat beside
her and the other ministers were accom-
modated in the drag. On reaching the
castle coffee was brought, and the queen
ordered cigars to be produced as well and
offered to the gentlemen. The ministers
seemed to hesitate. In all the annals of
Spanish history no subject had ever
smoked in the presence of a queen. The
queen regent, however, gave the COM
Inand, and the ministers, like dutiful sub
jects, obeyed. Gold sticks and chamber
lains have been ever since in hopeless

INSECTS, BIRDS AND ANIMALS.

A live lamb with two bodies and one head
is the latest Tuscarora Call "freak."
For over twenty years bees have inhabited
a large pine tree near Watkinsville, Ga, and
the other day a farmer cut it down and found
a hollow thirty-eight feet long, and eight
inches in diameter, completely filled with
honey.
A gray eagle was shot near Frankfort,
Mich, the other day at the outlet of Crystal
lake. When shot the bird was Swimming over
the water for fish, and its mouth and throat
were crammed full The bird measured
seven feet across, from the tip of the wings.
\ farmer near Pana, Ills, has an cid shep-
herd dog that took care of a weak lanlbllin all
last spring, nursing it back to health, while
its own mother discarded it. The dog then
adopted a sick little pig that the had
neglected, and in this case, also, proved a
successful nurse.
A farmers dog in France, says The London
Telegraph. dragged strange man from un-
der his masters bed and fought until it had
killed the man. The gendarmes We're then

Upon one of the gendarmes blowing the
whistle from an open window, four ruffans
appeared upon the scene, entered the house,
and were arrested.
Here is the way they make sparrows useful
in Germany: Long troughs, placed at the
caves of houses are occupied by the spar
rows in building their nests. When the
young are Matched and the mother goes out
to procure food, wire screens are placed over
them, with interstices large enough to permit
the passage of food into the younglings, but
too small TO allow them to escape. AS soon
as they become plump they are killed, and
make a desirable article of food
Ara Soule, of Grant, Mimi, noticed that
one of his favorite hens had ceased laying
eggs, but was growing remarkably large.
Finally, after attaining am astonishing size,
then hen died, and Mr.. Soule was curious
enough to hold Il post mortem examination
He cut the fowl open and was somewhat as
tonished whom four we'll developed spring
chickens popped out and began strutting
about the barnyard. He supposes that some
trouble with the hens organization had
stopped the egress of the eggs and that the
natural heat of her body incubated the
chicken germs.

THINGS YOU MAY LIKE TO KNOW.

A little borax in the water used for bathing
the face will tend to remove an oily look.
Vaseline or cold cream applied to the finger
nails every night will tend to make them less
brittle.
Eggs should never be placed near onions
fish, cheese, lard, coffee any article from
which rises perceptible odor.
Flannels should be ironsd on the wrong
side, with an iron that barely sizzles under a
wet finger, until they are quite dry.
Dust and coal smoke are removed from
papered walls and ceilings by rubbing them
with broom wrapped around with soft
white cloth; the cloth should be changed
whenever it becomes much soiled.
A cheap and effective disinfectant can be
made by dissolving bushel of salt in a bar
rel of water, and with this water slack bar
rel of lime. This forms a sort of chloride of
lime, which may be used freely in cellars,
outhouses, etc.
To keep silver plated articles bright, dip
them occasionally in a solution of hyposul-
phite of soda. Large articles, like pitchers
dipped in the solution and dried with a soft
towel By rubbing with piece of channels
leather they will be as bright new.
The cleanest and most perfectly polished
floors have no water used on them. They
are simply rubbed off every morning with a
large flannel cloth which is soaked in kero-
sence oil once in two or three weeks. Shake
the dust out of the cloth, and with rubbing
brush or stubby broom go rapidly up and
down the planks mot across them).

India's Professional PRISONERS.

Although the Thugs of India have been
long since eXterminated, Hindoo writer
i'll The London Standard tells how they
have been replaced by professional poison
ers. These people make use of a poison
extracted frotl the seed of the ahatura,
mixed with opium, and travel from place
to place, now poisoning a travelling COM
panion fCr his money, n laborer for his
oxen or a host for the valuableS in his
house. They are distinguished from the
Thugs in that they kill women, children
and pilgrims, which the Thugs would not
do. The road prisoners are organized
secretly, and great efforts have been made
to eXter1ninate them, but thus far with
out success.-New Orleans Times-Demo-
